Cemetery List by
Township
This list was compiled from GNIS Government location maps and Henry County
Genealogical Society publications. Town names next to
to the GNIS map coordinates are the names of the large maps they appear on and not necessarily the town the
cemetery is located in.
Lookup volunteers are available for some publications. Please see
the lookups topic page and follow the
instructions there to request help. Limit your lookup request to one or two listings and be sure to list cemetery
name and county in your request, as some people do lookups for more than one area.
Please purchase any book in which you think you will need more than one or two
persons looked up. The Henry County Genealogical Society relies on the sales of these books in order to be able to
produce more books. HCGS is very good about allowing us to do lookups from their books, but they do need to sell
the books to survive and our volunteers really can't do all your research for you.
At the end of this list are notes we have received about burial sites we either
cannot name or locate. Take a look at them and see if you recognize any of those as well.
